About Me

I started Djing in 1990 in Jersey, and have been in-house DJ for Youth's (Killing Joke) label Dragonfly Records from 1996 - 2001.

Labels released on - Ministry of Sound, Warners, Global Underground's Nu Breed Vol.4, 10 Kilo, Dragonfly, Kamaflage, Transient, TIPWorld, Flying Rhino, Atomic, Automatic, Lost Language, A-Wave, Synergetic and Joof.

Producing electro/house under the title Richard K and Purple for Psy/Tech Trance, and more recently as Backdoor Hussies alongside Tim Healey of 'Coburn' fame, I'm also involved in co-production and live drums in psy-trance band Bulletproof with Dino Psaras, Iain Rive and Razak Helalat.
